Reverse Transplant Tourism [PDF]
In this article, we propose a novel form of kidney swap, which we label “Reverse Transplant Tourism.” This proposal has the potential to increase the number of successful transplants in the US at a time of great need, while reducing costs.

Isohemagglutinins of Graft Origin after ABO-Unmatched Liver Transplantation [PDF]
THE increasing success of liver transplantation in recent years has provided an experimental model to study and document the hepatic synthesis of many plasma proteins.12345 The normal hepatobiliary tract has not been regarded as a major source of ...

Neonatal hyperbilirubinemia due to ABO incompatibility: does blood group matter?
Newborn infants with maternal-fetal ABO incompatibility are at a greater risk for developing subsequent significant hyperbilirubinemia, and therefore, prediction of probable risk factors, such as the degree of hemolysis, gains importance.

CD34+ enriched donor lymphocyte infusions in a case of pure red cell aplasia and late graft failure after major ABO-incompatible bone marrow transplantation [PDF]
A variety of immunohematological complications may occur after ABO-incompatible BMT. We report a CML patient (blood group O) who received a BMT from an HLA-identical sibling (blood group AB).

Organization of aerobactin, hemolysin, and antibacterial resistance genes in lactose negative Escherichia coli strains of serotype O4 isolated from children with dhiarrea [PDF]
Epidemiologically related, non-lactose-fermenting (NLF) Escherichia coli strains of serotype O4 have been isolated at a high frequency from children with diarrhea in Somalia (M. Nicoletti, F. Superti, C. Conti, A. Calconi, and C. Zagaglia, J.

CURRENT TECHNOLOGIES AND CLINICAL TRIALS IN KIDNEY TRANSPLANTATION
Since 1999 living-donor kidney transplantation (LDKT) is one of the priorities in the work of our Center. More than 45% of kidney transplants performed annually are the LDKTs.

The evolutionary dynamics of variant antigen genes in Babesia reveal a history of genomic innovation underlying host-parasite interaction [PDF]
Babesia spp. are tick-borne, intraerythrocytic hemoparasites that use antigenic variation to resist host immunity, through sequential modification of the parasite-derived variant erythrocyte surface antigen (VESA) expressed on the infected red blood cell
